Once you get to that point, though, it seems like what you're really looking for is a computer and not a mobile device.

Perhaps what's missing is not an iPad with mouse support, but a Mac with a more Surface-like form factor.

I'm posting using a wireless mouse and USB keyboard from my Android desktop, a 4K tv box.

Android does support mouse input; Apple can at any time release a typecover for iPad with a trackpad. They choose not to.
